Live your life in such a way......
....that when your feet hit the floor in the morning,
Satan shudders and says......
"Oh, S**t!.... she's awake!!"

Quiz for people who know everything! - Answers

1. The one sport in which neither the spectators nor the participants know the score or the leader until the contest ends: Boxing

2. North American landmark constantly moving backward: Niagara Falls (The rim is worn down about two and a half feet each year because of the millions of gallons of water that rush over it every minute.)

3. Only two vegetables that can live to produce on their own for several growing seasons: Asparagus and rhubarb.

4. The fruit with its seeds on the outside: Strawberry.

5. How did the pear get inside the brandy bottle? It grew inside the bottle. The bottles are placed over pear buds when they are small, and are wired in place on the tree. The bottle is left in place for the entire growing season. When the pears are ripe, they are snipped off at the stems.

6. Three English words beginning with dw: Dwarf, dwell and dwindle. (Isn't "Dweeb" a word?)

I didn't do too badly on this quiz. Of the questions that required one answer, I got 5 right. Of the ones with multiple answers, I got at least half of the answers for each. The only one I missed totally was #3.
